Identification and Characterization of Abandoned Padded Wellsites Using Remote Sensing
Resource
In 2018, the Petroleum Technology Alliance of Canada (PTAC) initiated a multi-stage project on the reclamation certification process for sites that were constructed using imported mineral soil pads in...
In Search of a Critical Habitat Concept for Woodland Caribou, Boreal Population
Resource
A hierarchical approach to critical habitat identification has been proposed in the draft National Recovery Strategy for the Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), Boreal Population. This...
Modeling Cumulative Effects of Climate and Development on Moose, Wolf, and Caribou Populations
Resource
This article explores the results of an integrated landscape and population simulation model which accounts for key ecological components and relationships among moose, grey wolves, and woodland...
Preparing Variance Justifications for Reclamation Certification of Wellsites and Associated Facilities on Forested Land: 2023 Update
Resource
In 2021, PTAC sought verification of the Guide to Preparing Variance Justifications and stakeholders were asked to apply the document to current sites in their work portfolio.
Range Management Policy in Support of Woodland Caribou Conservation and Recovery
Resource
The Range Management Policy provides a transparent and evidence-based approach to planning and decision-making in caribou habitat that maintains or improves the condition of caribou ranges in Ontario...
Revegetation of Post-mined Land Using Directly Planted Native and Local Shrub Species
Resource
Hand collecting vegetative propagules from surrounding pre-mined land and directly planting these propagules on post-mined land may be the only method to successfully establish key shrub species

Selection for Forage and Avoidance of Risk by Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) at Coarse and Local Scales
Resource
The relationship between selection at coarse and fine spatiotemporal spatial scales is still poorly understood. Some authors claim that, to accommodate different needs at different scales, individuals...
Significant Wildlife Habitat: Technical Guide
Resource
This technical guide is intended for use in the municipal policy and development process under the Planning Act.
Space-use Behaviour of Woodland Caribou Based on a Cognitive Movement Model
Resource
Movement patterns offer a rich source of information on animal behaviour and the ecological significance of landscape attributes. This is especially useful for species occupying remote landscapes...
Spring Diet of American Black Bears (Ursus americanus) in a Moose (Alces alces) – Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) System in Northern Ontario, Canada
Resource
American black bears can be predators of ungulates, especially neonates. In this study in northern Ontario, there was no evidence of caribou consumption.
Surface Soil Handling on Mines in the Boreal Forest – from Textbook to Operations
Resource
Research has shown forest surface soil provides an economical, diverse and abundant source of native propagules and an important source of nutrients and soil fauna. Salvage depth affects soil quality
The Essential Carbon Service Provided by Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands have cooled the global climate by accumulating large quantities of soil carbon (C) over thousands of years. Maintaining the C sink function of these peatlands and their immense long...
